Something occured to me as odd this evening on the way home from school.
I don't know why I hadn't thought about this before, but as I was
driving I got to thinking about the dir structure in Linux and there's
one dir that sticks out as odd more than any other. That would be the

Would it be appropriate to make that one of the init run level 0/6 scripts.
Give the script a low number to ensure that it runs before the mail process
is killed. My understanding is the the warning message argument in the
shutdown command is only for those users currently logged into the system.
What is the max file size in ReiserFS? I looked on the Reiser site and
found no mention of the maximum.

Is it 2.2.15 (which requires an update to 2.2.16)? Or did they make it
